Going into a therapeutic process is a pause in a difficult world that provides an opportunity to grow, develop and heal. In a secure, non-judgemental intimate space that enables reflection, thinking, and questioning, the analytic process can become an opening, a clearing through which we understand ourselves better and find our strengths.

I think of Psychotherapy and psychoanalysis as a developmental process that occurs in the space between two people.
It is a pause in a difficult world that enables reflection, thinking, and questioning.
I understand this process not only as an exploration of the inner world, the psyche, but also as an opportunity to unfold and rethink the world we live in and our place in it.
We all have something to work on - to understand better, solve or change- it could be a specific problem like a relationship; a job difficulty; immigration; illness or death; identity crisis; trying to fit in; an oppressive power relation regarding identity; a specific fear or a bothering thought that occupies too much space in our lives.

Having a background in psychiatry and working in a mental health hospital, I've been seeing people coping with a wide range of mental health problems: schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, affective disorders like depression or mania, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, post-traumatic disorders, and many other diagnoses.
Within the psychiatric medicalised atmosphere, I endeavoured to see people beyond their diagnostic category and focused on individual development and recovery.
This understanding is rooted in what is known as the Recovery Model of psychiatric disability.

I charge 80 for an hour and a half initial consultation session and after that, my fees range between 70-100 per hour session (60 minutes session).
I believe that psychoanalysis and psychotherapy should be for everyone, which is why I am allocating some of my time slots to providing low-cost therapy sessions for those who are in need of it.
Many people ask me about the differences between psychotherapy and psychoanalysis.
Some would say it's about the frequency of the meetings, others would argue it has to do with the spatial position a person takes in the room - lying on the bed when the analyst is behind you or sitting on the couch face to face with her (or him).
